Career[edit | edit source]

A native of Manakkal, Lalgudi in Trichy district, Gopalarathnam was active in college dramas during his B.Com. from Vivekananda College, Chennai and got introduced to the stage through his friend Nagesh in his drama troupe in 1955. In the 1959 play Nenje Nee Vaazhga, he played the role of a typist, which was praised and he got his name "Typist" Gopu.[1] In 1965, he made his film debut in K. Balachandar's movie Naanal and went on to act alongside major actors in the period. He later joined Y. G. Mahendran's United Amateur Artists. He received Kalaimamani in 2002.[4] He also acted on comedy television serials[5] after acting opportunities ceased to come.
